    I have a dual and a quad G5, they both have an extra internal drive called jobs drive, how do i find out what kink of drive that is? i would like to know if it’s a SATA or IDE or if it would be any other type of drive. Is there away that I can find out with out taking the drive out of the machine?

    This is probably off-topic for this forum, but here’s what to do. Click the Apple in the upper left corner, then “About this Mac.” Next, click the “More Info” button. It will list all the busses under “Hardware” on the left, and you can see what drives are connected to each bus (SCSI, SATA, etc.).
